Dorothy Rosby, a National Society of Newspaper Columnists member, published in November a column collection, I Used to Think I Was Not That Bad and Then I Got to Know Me Better.
She writes at her website dorothyrosby.com that it’s “the book for people who read self-improvement books and never get any better. (Also for the people who sincerely wish they would.) It’s a humorous look at topics like relationships, anxiety, communication, bad habits, and more. It’s a collection of essays on universal topics like relationships, anxiety, communication, bad habits, and more.”
